| 520 | |a One of the key observations from the Covid-19 pandemic was the rise of scientific authoritarianism, in the wake of contesting narratives around scientific and government overreach in the management of the outbreak. The emergence of cancel culture and digital policing of voices criticising the dominant narratives of vaccination and imposed lockdowns, reflected the criminalisation of dissent. Opposition to government and scientific pronouncements on the pandemic was met with sanction. This article foregrounds the warnings from the pandemic, of the growing policing of metacrime and thoughtcrime in South Africa, as a response to criticism of scientific (and governmental) authoritarianism. The article presents an interdisciplinary perspective on metacrime, thoughtcrime and scientific authoritarianism, within the context of the global and local response to the pandemic, with specific reference to South Africa. | ||
